". . . I see . . ."

Lisa looked at me weirdly, gauging my reaction. "Did I answer all your questions? Can you let go of me now?"

"Hmm . . . I don't know . . ."

Lisa's face contorted in annoyance. "What? You promised to release me after I answer all of them!"

"I felt like what you told me is lacking. I wasn't satisfied. There's this hole inside me that wasn't filled. To begin with, I don't have much to ask since I'm still new to this world."

My face brightened, and I beamed at her. "I know. Why don't you tell me something useful? Something that will entirely change my mind about killing you."

"You liar! You said –!"

Lisa gasped when the knife went deeper against her skin, and blood was oozing nonstop at her neck. "I won't ask again.

She gritted her teeth and glared at me with fuming eyes. "If I tell you, will you finally let me go?"

"Sure."

Lisa wasn't convinced, but she got no choice in the matter. I was the one who was holding her life in my hands. Not the other way around.

"If I tell you where to get more Tokens, will you let me live?" she bargained, voice unsure like she was testing the waters.

My hope rekindled at what she said, and she noticed it when the tightness of her face loosened a bit.

"Yes."

"You promised?"

"Just hurry up before I lose my patience and the knife in my hand slips into your eyes."

"Alright. Alright." She panicked when I raised the dagger over her right eye.

"The Old Hag has many tokens! Lots of them! So many players died in her hands. All the tokens they have is definitely with her! She can't summon those Tokens, and it's a waste to discard them. She must be keeping them in her storage!"

The Old Hag?

What she said actually made sense.

System, could the inhabitants in this world acquire Tokens if they kill a player?

[Yes. However, they can't summon them. Their option is either sell it or give it to another player]

I see . . .

My eyes twinkled in glee.

It looked like I could get so many Tokens from the Old Hag in one go. I no longer have to travel to Roselake, saving me so much time in the process.

And who knew, maybe I could return to my territory before the [Evil Heart] deactivated.

I kept the knife in my inventory and pulled myself up from the ground.

Lisa released a big breath before she slowly took to her feet. She was staring at me without blinking with a face coated in worry that I might go back on my words.

I looked her dead in the eyes and told her, "You can go. A promise is a promise."

Lisa's eyes widened in disbelief, and she quickly turned to her heels to get away from me.

However, before she could, she skidded to a stop when she fell to the ground once more. She looked to her feet that were no longer attached to her thighs before her shaking eyes slowly traveled to the giant Sword in my hand.

"I did promise not to kill you, so I merely injured you," I said and flung Lucy (Lunatic Purgatory) over my shoulder. I felt it pulsating, still hungry for more blood though it was literally dripping from it.

"However, this mutt had other ideas." I whistled, and Minion 0 appeared beside me.

"Y-you!" Lisa gnashed her teeth, but before another word escaped her mouth, Minion 0 feasted upon her flesh.

"Argh!"

Her screams surely rattled the Old Hag. I didn't care, though. It was not like I was going to hide my presence or plan an ambush.

I'm going to enter her house in a civilized manner like a civilized human being and ask for the Tokens.

<+10 000 Evil Points rewarded to Host for threatening a player for the first time!>

<+100 000 Evil Points rewarded to Host for killing a player for the first time!>

Just a hundred? I asked the System as Lisa's body burst into white particles. I really thought I get like a million.

<+100 000 Evil Points is the maximum allowable points to give to Host>

I see . . .

I returned Minion 0 back to the [Minion] menu and stored Lucy in my inventory. Since I was going to ask the Old Hag politely. No need for violence.

I don't know about that part.

The only reason I killed her was for the Evil Points, and that my other self would wallow in self-despair and guilt to the point that he would activate [Evil Heart] again to escape his emotions.

<Aren't Host worried that it would backfire instead?>

It was either that or the latter. Either way, my other self is a coward, so he wouldn't dare to end his life with his own hands.

I fixed my hair and clothes before going to the Old Hag's Door.

Rising my hand, I was about to knock when the door creaked open, and a sweet, sultry voice purred from the inside.

"Come in~."
